Preparing The Trip: Barbados Dress

Dress Code

Casual slacks and lightweight sportswear for the times when you are not in a bathing suit.

Beachwear should also include sunglasses, sunblock and beach footwear.

While Barbados is a fun holiday island, there are dress codes, and because of 300 years of conservative British heritage, formal attire is still seen at times other than weddings and funerals. Business men wear a shirt and tie and sometimes a jacket. Women wear smart dresses.

It's a good idea to wear pants and shirt when visiting the bank, it looks more respectful and gives you a pocket for your wallet.
